A 25-year old Sophia resident, who allegedly set his lover on fire because she refused to speak with him, was yesterday remanded to prison after he was charged with attempted murder.
Wazim Perreira was not required to plead to the indictable charge after it was read to him, during an in-camera hearing, by Chief Magistrate Ann McLennan in Georgetown.
The charge alleges that Perreira on September 9th, at Sophia, with intent to commit murder, unlawfully and maliciously wounded the woman.
